Who's Absurd?

I think Jonah Goldberg made a strong point in his Sept. 9 column about absurdity but, ironically, it wasn't what he intended [Opinion, "Theater Of The Absurd Has Taken Over Senate"].

He implies that senators who have already declared they won't vote for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh should not be pursuing more information about him, no matter what the new information reveals, because they are already committed to vote no. That's classic absurdity!
